When the particles in a medium vibrate perpendicular to the direction the wave is traveling, this type of waves is called a:

A. Transverse wave

B. Longitudinal wave

C. Surface wave

D. Tidal wave

The speed of water waves decreases as the water becomes shallower. suppose waves travel across the surface of a lake with a speed of 2.0 m/s and a wavelength of 1.5 m. when these waves move into shallow part of the lake, their speed decreases to 1.

What is the variable that changes in response to the manipulated variable?
